We're at a point in history where our species, much less our society, is in grave danger. Absent some major fundamental changes, we're seriously screwed, Trump or no Trump.

Not exactly complicated. As I have mentioned, there is a direct relationship between Sanders' nomination chances and Trump's theoretical odds of being reelected. The stronger Sanders is, the stronger Trump is. But there is still "play" in the Trump market due to uncertainty. If Sanders were guaranteed the Democratic nod, Trump would soar above 60. If Biden becomes the favorite, then Trump drops slightly below 50. But it would not be a significant drop for Trump, not unless his approval rating faltered due to the virus:
